I haven’t had them on for 10 years plus because they took forever to load on my phone in the 3G era. I don’t even know what my signature is. I think it’s the date of our last playoff game win. Ah, didn't know that....thx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ@w Posted August 21, 2021 Report Share Posted August 21, 2021 So nobody is talking about alligator arms Chase? He should’ve caught those passes. He looked scared to me because he was going to take a hit. I thought this guy was a beast? Sewell looked pretty good btw and you can see him live tonight on nfl network against the Stoolers. Whoever asked about Spain, he did hold, but he didn’t need to do that as Mixon was already past him. The blown TE play again is our freaking LBs. I believe it was Evans. He screwed up a few times. I did not watch the whole game as I knew they would be playing the guys to cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chase definitely looked nothing like a #1 NFL receiver last night...just plain dropped 3 very catchable balls...whether it was nerves, fear, or whatever will come out over time, but for now he's making me extremely uneasy. Maybe he needs to spend time with his boy Joe B for some private tutalling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might take a bit longer for a receiver to get used to receiving in traffic…maybe. The good news is that the wide receiver group is solid, and can still be effective until he gets going.

PFF disagrees with you https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-preseason-week-1-rookie-report-grades-advanced-stats-snaps-2021 Quote Penei Sewell looked rusty, but don't panic — Very few were expecting Sewell — a “generational” talent — to give up a sack on the opening drive of his preseason debut, but that's exactly what happened. And that wasn't all, either, as he made another couple of uncharacteristic mistakes, such as a complete whiff in the run game and a delayed takeoff that led to a lost rep in pass protection. There was some positive mixed in there to help his PFF grade settle at 66.5 for the game, but it wasn’t pretty from Sewell overall. Let’s not overreact to this, though. Don’t forget that this was Sewell’s first football game since the 2019 season and his first game at right tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The #5 pick in the draft needs to spend time with the starting QB to relearn how to catch a fucking football. Maybe Never draft a guy who took a year off because his vagina was itchy.

In all honesty we already have two very good WRs in Boyd and Higgins. I don’t think it’s a big deal for the offense. It’s a big deal for the Bengals drafting, but that isn’t a surprise. Chase will likely bounce back, but for now there are targets for Burrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleEarl Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 Eh… something to bitch about. Hopefully he’ll be fine, but you hate to see it. It’s not normal. Its more important that the OL keeps improving. If they protect Burrow and open holes for Mixon the Bengals have plenty of receiving weapons and Chase can develop with less pressure.

PatternMaster Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 Lolz @ the morons losing their shit cause Brandon Allen sucks and was trying to get Chase killed. If anything the lack of talent at QB is more alarming than Chase. I'm not worried about Chase at all, he will be fine. Allen was inaccurate and making bad reads all night. He was placing the ball in situations where guys had to expose themselves to big hits to make a play instead of protecting them with better ball placement. Schumer was a turn over machine again and Dungy was ok. I would love to see a real vet in the QB room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but I think it's more to do with Hopkins getting the Burrow treatment and not letting him play yet. Hopefully they both get at least one series next week.
